[AT] Fw: 1922 cleveland[cletrac] tractor - $11000 (altoona)

[Richard Fink Sr]

Thanks to everyone for confirming what i thought.
I have had other ones asking that i open a pay pal account so they can 
deposit the money in it. [[And have a shipper]]
I have told them that if they have a shipper send 110 $100.00 bills with 
them and i will load it fro them.
